YE JOLLY OLDE iTUNES U.K. CHARTS: Two trends stick out on this late-summer Friday. First, a hit is a hit: The top three singles, and five of the Top 10, are selling like hotcakes on both sides of the pond. Second, Brits love a bargain as much as Yanks do: Coldplay (£6.99), John Legend (£4.99), HAIM (£3.99) and John Newman (£3.99) have all returned to the leaderboard since their prices were slashed.
